You are in danger if you neglect these warnings. They may pass oif, but the chances are against you, and even then the poison is only iatent in your system.

Do not, however, put your trust in the numerous mineral medicines with which the market is flooded. The action of many of these decoctions comes from mineral poisons they contain, such as mercury, ar- senic, strychnine, pismuth, iodide of potas- sium,and the like and any druggist will tell you if he tells ou truly, that this is so.

a reconciliation. But t!.e present pouiill, who hus already achieved even mor fame as a diplom atist and as astatesman than as an gcclesiastic, has quietly bu nune the less surely brought the negotia- tions in connect.on with the matter to such a point that we may practically be said to be wit!.in view of the reunion of the Eastern aud Western churches.

In the pursuit of this great underta'- ing Leo XILL has enjored not ouly the encobragement Lut also the active sup port of neariy «il the great powers ci Europe. The italian Government, which possesses in its colonies a large popula- tion belonging to the Orthojux faitu, las already gives cliicial notification of its hearty approval ef the scheme. So, too, has the French Government, not only on similar grounds, but also because it fore- sees in reconciliation of the two churches a strengthening of its alliance with Russia. Itis no longer any secret at Rome that the recent interviews of the Czar’s brothers with the Pope have had a bewring on the subject, and ene of the

nost influential prelates of the Pontiff’s court, Cardinal Vanutelli, published some months ago a book destined to prove that the reunion of the two churches, far from weakening, would, on the contrary, vasily strengthen the pc sition of the Czar, and greatly contri- bute to convert the now discontented Polish population on the western frontier of the empire into loyal subjects of Alex- ander Ii.

The work in guesiion is asserted to have been received with tokens of mar’:- ed favor by the }iuscovite court, as well as by thearistocracy, and the procurato of the Holy Synod at St. Petersbur, the Czar’s former tut r and piesent conti- dant and advisor, N. Pobiedonotself, even when so far as to indite a reniirk- able letter to Cardinal Vanutelli ex ng sincere wisies for the realizat.o. of the prospects of reconciliation held out inthe volume. At no time since the days of Peter the Great have the rela- tions between the Court of St. Peters- burg and the Vatican been so cordial and intimate as at the present moment, and it may be remembered that. the Czar was the only monarch of the old world who took the trouble to send a member of his own family to convey his good Wishes to Leo XIL1. oa the occasion cf the latter’s episcopai jubilee last win- ter. Moreover, the former persecution of the Catholic clergy in Poland and elsewhere in Russia has entirely ceased, while the priests and bishops banished to Siberia under tormer reigns have ali Leen permitied to return to their homes,

At Athens the government press is open'y discassing the question of recocili- ation “itt expressions of good will, and at Bucharest, Belzrade, Tofia, and Cet- tinje tie same favoraLie dispositions are to be found on the part of the govern- me t, the clergy and the people. Mean- while, the pope is displaying a liberality and breadth of mind im the matter which have Contributed in no small messure to conciliate those who were at first most hosii.e to the project. Since his acces- sion to the tiara the Greek ciurch, semi- nary, and college at Grossoferrata has iad its resources largely developed by

eans of tue munilicent annual subven- tio accorded to it by the papal treasury.

we Armenian and Greek colleges at dome have likewise been the recipients of generous subsidies from the present pontiff, who has also largely contripvuted toward the maintenance of the Gree church seminary of St. Anne, at Jerus lem. It is perhaps due to this policy that the Nestorians of Mesopotamia and Persia, who had hitherto shown them- selves as the most refractory to the pre- cepts of the Church of Rome, have of late given significant evidence of their disposition to revert to their former spir- itual allegiance.

The work undertaken by Leo XIII. is one that demands the exercise of diplo- macy and statecraft, rather than the- ology. For the eastern church has re- mained in dogma and ceremonial almost entirely what it was at the time of its separation, while the doctrinal points of difference are exceedingly small, the chief point being the omission by the Greek church of the word “*filioque,” or ‘‘and the son,” after the clause in the Ni- cene Creed which declares that ‘‘the Holy Ghost proceedeth from the Father.” It was the retusal of the eastern church to render obedience to Pope Leo IX. by inserting these words that caused the schism which, according to present ap pearances, is about to be brought to a

It is amusing to the way traveler to note, as he through some pleasant countryside. not one or..two, but perhaps fifty different picnics in full swing, each numbering scores or hundreds of guests. It has been said with much more truth than is usually to be found in epigrams of this kind. that:

Care of the Bathroom,

If you cannot keep your bathroon sweet by thorough flashing every day and by pouring hot soda water or dissoly the pipes about Seri is trouble with the plumbing, and voa should have it examined at once, writ Maria Parloa in the Julv Ladies’ Hom Journal, Sometimes th: pipe in the kitchen sink is not kept perfectly fre and sweet, or the closet in the basement is not properly flusued. If there be trou- ble anywhere in tue waste pipes it will make itself known all over the house Try having the pipe in the kitchen siuk flushed twice a week with strong sode water, It should be boiling hot. It will dissolve and carry off all the particles of grease that may be clinging to the pipe.

Numbering the Hairs of the Head

The old idea that the hairs of the head are innumerable is thoroughly exploded. Some years ago a German scientist had the patience and somehow had the time to make a careful investigation of the subject, and by taking a section of the scalp and carefully counting the hair on it, then wekirg an estimate, he ar- rived vt a tolerable accurate idea of the number of hairs that grow on the whole scalp. He found that blonde hair was the finest, and that about of this color grow on the average head then brown came next with about 110 600, and black followed with 100,000, Red is the coarsest there being only about 80,000 kairs on the head “of red or auburn hue.”

Howells has contributed to ‘‘The Niagara |

Book.” In this sketch he gives a humorous account of his setting forth from Olio in 1860 to explore the distant capitals of Boston and New York, and t@acquaint himself ‘‘with the manners and customs of strange peoples, so far

as they were to be studied im Canada.” |

For this purpose the youth took all the money he had, which happened to be

the profits of his campaign life of Lin- |

coln.

A Clever Dodge.

A curious device for ‘‘working up” the sale of a book is reported in The London Author. It was given out that a noble of high degree had resolved to marry the exact counterpart of a certain heroine of romance. Of course the marriagable girls all bought the ro- mance to see what the heroine was like. Hence much profit for the author.
